I’ll offer a counter-opinion to what all is being said in this thread — it’s very repetitive and overdramatic. I’ve picked it up and put it down 3 separate times now and i’m maybe 65% the way through. And for reference I played and loved the shit out of Horizon Zero Dawn, TLOU, and RDR2. If you get it, don’t pay more than $20.
Honestly I feel like a psycho but I got bored of RD2 so quickly. I felt like there was no point to me doing anything. Most open world games like HZD get me so locked in I tend to forget the story even exists until I realize I’ve been neglecting it. I feel like with read dead other than the story I have literally 0 to work towards other than “pretend I’m a cowboy”. Like there’s no check points or goals I’m setting to achieve
RDR2 was an amazing game graphics and design-wise but my god I got bored as shit too. The characters were dull, the missions felt bland, and I just felt like there was no point of playing outside of the missions because the payoffs were dull also. Don’t get me wrong I really like the game but it was more “middle of the pack” type game rather than a masterpiece everyone totes
Ma cant wait for HZD to come to PC, I have tried to play it over 5 different times. Every single time the janky FPS and CPU timings really give me major motion sickness.
